Fedora 30 : The VS Code on Fedora.

The Visual Studio Code editor is officially distributed as a Snap package in the Snap Store.
It runs well on the Fedora distro, but with my Window operating system is crash often.
I like to develop my python projects like Flask and Django with this editor.
You can install it very easy on Fedora with the dnf tool:
[mythcat@desk ~]# dnf check-update
[mythcat@desk ~]# dnf update
[mythcat@desk ~]# exit
[mythcat@desk ~]$ sudo dnf install code
[sudo] password for mythcat: 
...
Is this ok [y/N]: y
...
Installed:
  code-1.37.0-1565228125.el7.x86_64
For Snap install you can use this command:
sudo snap install --classic code
Let's run it with:
[mythcat@desk ~]$ code
You can find many videos about this editor at official YouTube channel.
The result of my installation on Fedora 30 distro can be seen at this screenshot:

Fedora 28 : The VS Code on Fedora.

The Visual Studio Code is an editor for development and includes the features you need for highly productive source code editing.
You can use this editor with many Linux distros.
Today I tested with Fedora 28 distro version.
sudo rpm --import https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc
sudo sh -c 'echo -e "[code]\nname=Visual Studio Code\nbaseurl=https://packages.microsoft.com/yumrepos/
vscode\nenabled=1\ngpgcheck=1\ngpgkey=https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc" > /etc/yum.repos.d/vscode.repo'
Then use dnf to check and install this editor.
#dnf check-update
#dnf install code
Next step is to install extensions for Python, Golang, PHP, C# and more.
